I am Jwil, though now I am using it as a rough guide and calorie counting nstead as I find it a bit more flexible. I think the guide is to continue with extra easy but add in another HEA (the dairy one). The idea is to maintain rather than lose. Are you doing it too? We seem to be sisters!

I haven't been but thinking about following the principles to be healthy. I was wondering if there were any extra HEs.

Thank you

Hi,

Just joining now seeing as how I am now taking my debts very seriously indeed.

Paid 2 of my bad debts off today, so thats £613.98 of £40,513.49 total paid off, though I'd like to pay another £10,000 off before 2013 (unlikely to be full settlements, only partial).

Two thirds of August gone already. Where does it go? I got paid nearly £100 extra this month which is unheard of. When I studied my payslip it seems that I'm suddenly paying less tax. Isn't this an odd time of year to get that sort of adjustment? Thought that would happen April time.

Sorry to hear of your loss Twiggy. No payments for me through we have decided to go walking in Cornwall for our hol instead of abroad this week so that should save a lot of money I didn't have in the first place. We are camping too but treating ourselves to a lunch at Fifteen. Can't wait, love Fifteen yum yum.:j

Hi all...been a while since I checked in but I'm pleased to say its because I've been working v v v hard to clear my debt....I'm proud to say I'm now up to £2468.69 cleared!

What's really working for me at the moment is rigorous updating of my budget spreadsheet every night but more importantly wheni come in under budget on a planned spend I always pay the difference of my debt...so for example shop this week was budgeted at £75 and it came to £73.12... I therefore paid off £1.88!

No 139... Off to complete some more debt busting!!
